Oregon and Washington BS thread

It better not. Dead Week and then finals. I won't have time to enjoy it!

 

its still speculation tho.. Here's the warning.

...TRICKY TRAVEL OVER THE CASCADE PASSES SUNDAY NIGHT FOLLOWED BY VERY COLD AIR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK ...

THOSE TRAVELING HOME FROM THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND MAY WANT TO CONSIDER TRAVEL BY SATURDAY ...AS WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY DETERIORATE ACROSS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST SUNDAY.

A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED SUNDAY AS A VERY STRONG COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING SNOW TO THE CASCADE PASSES ...WITH PLENTY OF RAIN EXPECTED FOR THE LOWLANDS. HEAVY RAIN IS EXPECTED TO CHANGE TO SNOW IN THE CASCADES SUNDAY EVENING ...POTENTIALLY CAUSING SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW TO ACCUMULATE ON THE CASCADE PASSES SUNDAY EVENING. HEAVIER SNOW IS EXPECTED SUNDAY OVERNIGHT. CONFIDENCE HAS INCREASED THAT SNOW WILL GENERALLY BE CONFINED ABOVE PASS LEVEL SUNDAY AFTERNOON/

BEHIND THIS COLD FRONT ...VERY COLD AIR SOURCED FROM THE ARCTIC WILL MOVE INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. SNOW LEVELS WILL LOWER DRAMATICALLY WITH THE FRONT LATE SUNDAY NIGHT ...APPROACHING THE WILLAMETTE VALLEY FLOOR LATE MONDAY. A SECONDARY SYSTEM MAY PROVIDE ADDITIONAL MOISTURE MONDAY ... POTENTIALLY BRINGING MIXED RAIN AND SNOW TO THE LOWEST ELEVATIONS DURING MONDAY EVENING COMMUTE. THE DETAILS REGARDING THIS SECONDARY SYSTEM ARE STILL HIGHLY UNCERTAIN.

EVEN COLDER AIR IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE REGION BEHIND THIS SECOND SYSTEM ...LIKELY THE COLDEST SINCE NOVEMBER 2010 OR POSSIBLY LONGER. STRONG EAST WINDS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP IN THE GORGE AND IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN ...PUSHING WIND CHILLS NEAR OR EVEN BELOW ZERO FOR THESE AREAS. WIND CHILLS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THE PORTLAND METRO AREA BY MIDWEEK. WITH RECORD LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWLANDS GENERALLY IN THE LOWER TO MID 20S NEXT WEEK ...IT IS FAIRLY SAFE TO SAY SOME RECORDS WILL FALL.

CONFIDENCE IS HIGH THAT WINTRY WEATHER WILL AFFECT SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON AND NORTHWEST OREGON NEXT WEEK ...THOUGH THE FINER DETAILS REMAIN UNCERTAIN.

 

Dang I wanna find snow. I've had no luck so far. I have Tuesday and Wednesday off. I was hoping to go find some on one of those days

 

Jake, I may have to find a set of steel rims for my truck and have you do some welding to make double sided beadlockers. From what I saw of a video, 4 wheels can be made into beadlocks for about the cost of buying 1 that was originally designed that way.

 

Guess you'll be borrowing a truck to go somewhere if that's the case?

 

Ya my truck is still drivable but it will be in the shop by then hopefully. I was gonna take my powerstroke haha or talk one of my friends into going and co-piloting..

On that note anyone wanna go find snow

 

I'd love to, but I'm stuck in CO Springs until the 20th.

 

Dang! You working out there?

 

Some AF schooling. Kind of pointless stuff, but I have to do it.

 

Oh gotch! Well I'm sure there will be plenty of snow when u get back lol

 

I'd go with TC if I did it again. I don't think I'd go with another AP product again. They're nice but they don't hold up. Their fitment of the LT kit isn't the greatest either.

 

really?


I dug around a lot, learned their HD heims and such suck. Fitment was hit or miss for some. most didnt mention to many issues/or that they had some. maybe ill look around some more, i really want a little wider and taller. trying to line all the parts together is a PITA when doing it through multiple companies.



Now, how is the progress coming with the SAS? you see gurrry got a good headstart on you

 

want a laugh? read this, make sure to read all addition pages.

It's not even 4wd! I'd sell you mine for less than that.

 

they atleast have a complete looking dash

 

Does a dash make you go faster? If so I'll take two.
